Confocal images were collected using a Nikon Ti-E inverted microscope with a Yokogawa CSU-22 spinning disk head with the Borealis modification. Z-stacks were collected for 9 images at 0.4–0.6 μm spacing using a CoolSnap HQ2 CCD camera (Photometrics) and a 60x/1.40 NA Plan Apo oil immersion objective (Nikon) using Metamorph Software 7.10.2.240 (Molecular Devices). Alternatively, a Ti2 inverted microscope fitted with a CSU-W1 spinning disk system (Nikon) was used. Z-stacks were collected to cover the whole volume of cells at 0.4–0.6 μm spacing using a Zyla 4.2 sCMOS camera (Andor) and a 60x/1.40 NA Plan Apo λ oil objective and NIS-Elements 5.11.03 AR software (Nikon).
Csu w1 spinning disk system
The CSU-W1 spinning disk system is a compact confocal imaging system designed for live-cell imaging. It utilizes a high-speed spinning disk to provide rapid image acquisition with minimal phototoxicity. The system features a motorized stage and focus control for precise sample positioning and focusing. The CSU-W1 is intended for use in biological research and microscopy applications.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
